I plan on doing a combination of Legrand's ACTS (i.e. cooperative reassignments) and sandwich LO deals, along with some sub- tos with lease purchasing, initially.

It's just as likely that the individual LO isn't investor friendly, as it is likely that the bank itself isn't investor friendly. 

Hey Kyle,I put numbers in your quote above. (1) It's not true at traditional depository banks, but at mortgage companies and brokerages, the LO picks the AMC that picks the appraiser.

If one LO is not even suggesting options that the other LO is, then that might make your decision very easy.   

I had it happen 3 times in a row on one home for instance.. very poor LO's...

@Lo Lormejuste What's your strategy?

Here's my issue:The seller is willing to LO the property to me.

Lo, We got a mortgage, it took 2 months to close, it was quite a pain, we had to put money in for repair escrow just to fix some drywall.  

I'll be moving to Denver next summer (Summer 2018) and would like to connect with a few successful LO's/ Brokers who I can learn from but also serve.

Get the L/O signed with a contingency that payments don't start until I've found the end-tenant-buyer, and then enter into L/O with them with better terms and hopefully an option consideration of at least $5k to get my money out immediately.
